Abstract: A device having electrical contacts formed from an alloy having improved
wear resistance is provided, the alloy being particularly useful in microrelay devices
formed by MEMS technology. In one embodiment, the alloys are chosen to allow
sufficient precipitation hardening to improve wear resistance, but keep precipitation
below a level that would unacceptably reduce electrical conductivity. This is
achieved by using alloying materials that have very limited or no solid solubility in
the noble metal matrix, e.g., less than 4 wt.% solid solubility. In a second
embodiment, an alloy contains a noble metal matrix and insoluble, dispersoid
particles having no solubility in the matrix, these dispersoid particles offering a
similar strengthening mechanism.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une structure de filtre qui facilite l'utilisation du filtre en tant que filtre de Farrow à retard continu ou filtre polyphase à retard sélectionnable. Le filtre polyphase le moins complexe est utilisé lorsque l'échelle voulue correspond sensiblement à une phase définie du filtre polyphase, ou en l'absence de temps ou de puissance disponible pour l'obtention de l'échelle voulue exacte. Sinon, le filtre de Farrow à retard continu est utilisé. Grâce à la possibilité de commuter sur un retard continu, le nombre d'étages du filtre polyphase peut être réduit. Par ailleurs, une inversion du filtre de Farrow est présentée, permettant la production d'un filtre de décimation à retard continu, présentant une complexité de calcul sensiblement réduite par rapport à un mode de réalisation direct d'un filtre de Farrow. Ce filtre inversé peut être également configuré comme un filtre polyphase, de sorte que des fonctions de résolution d'échelle sélectionnables soient produites.

Patent EP-1156419-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BODNAR LANCE M
IPC: G06F11/10
Filed: 2001-05-09
Abstract: A technique for generating single-bit error-correcting,
two-bit burst error detecting codes and a parity check
matrix therefor selects values for the length of the code
and the length of the information word in the code and the
number of adjacent error detection syndromes (step 105).
The parity check matrix is generated by constructing an
addition table for the nonzero elements of GF(2 r ) for a
chosen minimal polynomial p(x) with the syndromes expressed
in exponential notation wherein GF is a Galois Field (step
120). Sets S, H, and D are formed, wherein the set S is
used as a reference for rows and columns of the addition
table and the set H contains error correction syndromes and
the set D contains adjacent error detection syndromes (steps
125 and 130). A syndrome that occurs most frequently in the
addition table but is not a member of set D is added to set
D and deleted from set S (steps 150 and 155). The
corresponding row and column of the syndrome that occurs
most frequently is deleted from the addition table (step
160). A determination is made as to whether the number of
elements is set D is less than  d . If so, the technique
returns two steps back and if not, the technique proceeds to
the following step. All occurrences of syndromes not in set 
D are replaced in the body of the addition table with -1 to
produce an adjacency matrix which is used to perform a path
search for a path of a predetermined length beginning with
vertex r-1 and adding syndromes to set H and deleting them
from set S as the path grows (steps 170 and 175). Upon the
path search terminating successfully, the set H is the
parity check matrix (step 180). The code word to be
corrected is multiplied by the parity check matrix to
produce a syndrome. If the syndrome is a member of set H,
the code word is determined to contain a correctable single
error. If the syndrome is a member of set D, the code word
is determined to contain an uncorrectable two bit adjacent
error. If d was chosen such that  d  < 2   r    - n - 1, the
syndrome may be non zero and be neither a member of set H
nor set D, in which case the code word contains an
uncorrectable multiple bit error. If the syndrome is all
zeros, the code word is determined to contain no errors.
The single error in the code word is corrected and an
uncorrectable two bit adjacent error or uncorrectable
multiple bit error is reported, as is no error in the code
word.

Abstract: A solenoid operated exhaust bleed type pressure control valve assembly providing a
proportional pressure control signal over the full range of solenoid operating current. A
poppet valve member is connected to the solenoid armature and closes against a valve seat in
the control signal port pressure chamber to prevent flow through the valve seat to the exhaust
(bleed) ports. This results in very low or reduced leakage at minimum pressures. The
poppet valve contacts a projection on a spool valve for effecting concurrent movement
therewith for valving a supply pressure port in the control signal pressure chamber. In the
nonnally closed version of the valve assembly, the poppet delays the spool opening of the
inlet or supply port until solenoid current has reached about Five to Twenty Percent (5 -
20%) of maximum. In the normally open version, the spool is delayed in closing the supply
inlet port until solenoid current reaches about Eighty to One Hundred Percent (80 - 100%) of
maximum.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un corps composite produit par un processus d'infiltration réactif qui possède une haute résistance mécanique, une haute dureté et une forte rigidité. Ce corps présente des applications dans diverses branches de l'industrie telles que l'outillage de précision et le blindage anti-projectiles. Plus spécifiquement ce matériau composite représente une charge de carbure de bore ou une phase de renfort et un composant de silicium avec une masse poreuse possédant un élément carboné. La réaction délétère potentielle du carbure de bore avec le silicium pendant l'infiltration est supprimée par l'alliage ou la dissolution du bore dans le silicium avant la mise en contact du silicium infiltrant avec le carbure de bore. Dans un mode préféré de réalisation de l'invention lié spécifiquement au blindage, on peut augmenter de bonnes performances balistiques en chargeant la masse poreuse ou la préforme à infiltrer à un haut degré avec une ou plusieurs charges dures telles que du carbure de bore et en limitant la taille des particules les plus grosses constituant la masse. Les corps composites de carbure silicium liés par réaction (RBSC) instantanée surpassent les corps RBSC précédents utilisés comme matériaux de blindage et, vus sous cet angle, les performances balistiques des céramiques de blindage carbure actuelles avec des procédés de fabrication potentiellement moins onéreux, par exemple avec des techniques d'infiltration.

Abstract: In the present semiconductor device, a chip with an
LSI circuit is secured to a board 3 (with the chip
flipped) so as to be level. The LSI circuit on the chip
is specified to operate normally only when the chip is
level. Further, the back of the chip is processed so as
to give stress to the chip. The chip has a reduced
thickness of 50 µm or less (alternatively 30 µm to 50
µm). Therefore, when the chip is detached from the board,
it deforms and is no longer level due to the stress,
which prohibits the LSI circuit from operating normally.
This way, the present semiconductor device ensures that
no analysis can be conducted on the LSI circuit once the
chip is detached.

reflected by the reflective liquid-crystal panel 13 is received by a detector 15 via the

is rotated about an axis almost parallel to the normal to the reflective liquid-crystal
panel 13 and an angle (extinction angle) at which the output signal of detector 15
reaches minimum is measured. Then, the gap of the reflective liquid-crystal panel 13
is detected based on the measured extinction angle. It is also possible to measure the
output signals of detector 15 by arranging the analyzer 14 in a state in which the
transmission axis thereof is almost parallel to the polarization direction of the
incident light and a state in which it is almost perpendicular thereto and to detect the
